,why doesnt anyone mention Frederator?
Total nightmare fuel right there (though i do have to admit the visuals are kind of cool). Its even worse when you combine it with the Adventure Time end credits:
(its the first logo, but the sound effects are the same)

That's what makes it scary. I dunno, if you're over 35 and experienced what was called "Sign-Off" (when TV programming actually ended for the day), the American National Anthem scared many a sleeping child who fell asleep in the living room. |

Of course, the all-time scariest logo is the Paramount Closet Killer:

Plus, I don't know, you're a KID and don't know what to make of strange images and noises?  ? The SFH sounded like aliens trying to vaporize your brain. |

I always found the metal Viacom logo scarier than the flying V.

Nothing will beat creepy silver Spider-Man J.J. Jameson was right. Spider-Man is a menace. Ruining our childhoods by being silver and creepy. |

This is still a little unsettling in a sense:
Now THIS creeped me out as a kid:

What about the Viacom "V of Doom"?
As well as a scarier version of the Closet Killer:

I love this thread.
They may have not ALL impacted me the way they impacted you, but I can most definitely see how they creeped you out. Already more than just a couple of the ones posted hit a nerve with me in the unsettling sense.
And some of it is the psychology of having just completed a viewing in one context, and then corporate overlord feel with disjointed visuals and music from what you just watched in a completely different context.
Aw heck, what am I saying? Some of it is just creepy. Ha.

I'm glad as an adult I found out that there are other people that also felt creeped out by the ending logos. Its just something about the abruptness, the disembodiedness, the finality of your show ending, something I've never been able to pinpoint to people who don't get it. I think for me the disembodied nature of a sudden thing making a loud noise was the main reason, the same reason anything weird on the radio creeped me out (i.e. numbers stations.)

Or what about the Lorimar "Line of Doom":
Here's someone doing a cover of the Lorimar jingle:
And the infamous VID/BND logo from Russia:

And the infamous VID/BND logo from Russia: If you play this video backwards, you can faintly hear, "I told you never to click on this." Scary, still, is the fact that the above is true *and* this closing logo was made before the Internet was even in existence. |
